I wonder if it's possible to get something like xterm's
eightBitInput=true in st. I would like to use the alt key for some vim
mappings. I'm not at all savvy on terminal stuff so any hint about how
to hack the code to get this working would be very much appreciated.
There isn't any switch for this in st. st can handle only utf-8 keyboards,
and I think it will do it forever. Alt is mapped to meta key in st, so it
does the same that xterm with altSendsEscape option. You can adjust your vim
mappings to this or hack the kpress function in st.
Best regards.
